The BBC has a good selection of tips and masterclass videos:

However, if you really want to improve at any sport, you'll probably want to do a mixture of all of the following:
- Get coaching. There's nothing like a good coach who can see your game from the outside, and knows just what to introduce and when. Not all coaches are great, but good ones are pure gold for your development.
- Practice regularly... both skills sessions and practice games. I remember an interview in which someone remarked on David Beckham's amazing free kick skills. He replied: "Well, I practice them every day".
- Play competitive games. It's important to use the skills for real, and also deal with the emotions of actual competition as opposed to practice.
- Watch the greats, live or on DVD. And even, watch better players than you, and just watch a lot of games. People are wired up to learn physical skills by watching other people doing things. (If you want to know more about that read up about mirror neurons.)

to improve radically you should try and work on how to give short passes first it involves nothing but just receive the ball and pass it.its a 2 shot process.try to on spot with your passes.
next you need to improve your ball control that is how you run with the ball with you.try not to invite tackles initially just move the ball around keep passing.
next you can learn dribbling from the net or someone who coaches you.
the last thing which comes is shooting.when its a spot kick,keep it in mind that your taking it only to score a goal.
and while shooting ask three questions to urself
1 when to shoot?
2 where to place?
3 how fast?
i m sure it would help you

How do I radically improve my football/soccer skills?
I am a huge soccer fan. Are there real websites that tell people what to do? You know, the basic deal: bend-shooting a ball like Beckham, or doing a lob/cross properly? Multi-stepovers? Nutmegs? Half-volleys? Are there any exercises I can do to improve myself? Help!!!

Football basically involves 3 things focus stamina and accuracy. to improve radically you should try and work on how to give short passes first it involves nothing but just receive the ball and pass it.its a 2 shot process.try to on spot with your passes.
next you need to improve your ball control that is how you run with the ball with you.try not to invite tackles initially just move the ball around keep passing.
next you can learn dribbling from the net or someone who coaches you.
the last thing which comes is shooting.when its a spot kick,keep it in mind that your taking it only to score a goal.
and while shooting ask three questions to urself
